Winners of the 2018 National HR Awards announced!

More than 150 professionals gathered at the prestigious Ritz-Carlton in downtown Toronto on Sept. 27 to celebrate the National HR Awards.

The fourth annual awards, presented by Canadian HR Reporter, honoured the top HR practices in the country - and gave the professionals the hardware to back it up.

Emceed by Todd Humber, publisher and editor-in-chief, it was a night of celebrations.

The standing-room only crowd heard the amazing story of Brian Knowler, a police officer, lawyer and author who told his story. In 2004, he responded to an accident scene involving one of his best friends from university. He talked about the importance of helping employees struggling with mental health issues.
